Videos: Ralph McIrnerry On Aquinas, Metaphysics, and Morality

These are all excerpts from a course offered online by the International Catholic University.  They offer self-study courses via DVD and audio CD, but these will cost you money.  The introduction to the philosophy of Aquinas consists of six lecture of about one hour each.  Texts of these lectures (at least part of the texts) is available free on the site.  The first video is the opening part of McIrnerry’s course INTRODUCTION TO AQUINAS.  You can view texts of the lectures and lessons HERE.  The second video is an excerpt from his course on metaphysics, you can view his rough notes on the lectures HERE.   The lessons can be found HERE.  The remaining five videos are from his course INTRODUCTION TO MORAL PHILOSOPHY.  The fact that the ICU has posted the entire first lecture on moral philosophy online probably gives an indication of their assessment for the need of a sound morality in our world.  McIrnerry’s rough notes on the lectures can be found HERE (click on links).  The lessons can be found HERE (scroll to bottom of page).
